John,

There are plenty of reasons why we need to do whatever it takes to defend our narrow Senate majority, but I’ll do my best to narrow down the list to 5.

Before I do that, would you please consider chipping in $5 — just $1 for each of the 5 reasons below — to help me and Fight for Progres defeat Republican Larry Hogan and keep Maryland’s Senate seat blue?

Alright, John, here we go!

1. Abortion rights: Republican legislators are rolling back abortion rights around the country. One of Senate Republicans’ top priorities is to pass a national abortion ban.


2. Climate crisis: We can’t take chances when it comes to preserving our planet. Democrats passed the largest investment in green energy and jobs in our country’s history, and Republicans are eager to repeal it.


3. Voting rights: When more people vote, Republicans lose. So the GOP wants to make it harder for people to vote by chipping away at the Voting Rights Act and passing voting restrictions.


4. Lowering costs: A Republican-controlled Senate would pass another massive tax cut for corporations and the ultra-wealthy, leaving working families to shoulder the burden.


5. The Supreme Court: We’ve already seen the far-right court overturn Roe and overrule student debt relief. Democrats need Senate control to have a say in future nominations.

For all these reasons (and so many more), we MUST defend our majority, John. But if we lose in Maryland, Republicans have a clear path to taking the Senate.

We need to raise another $5,000 by midnight to keep our fundraising on track to hit our End-of-Quarter FEC deadline goal. Can I count on you to chip in just $5, $25, or even $50 to help me and Fight for Progress defeat Larry Hogan and fend off a GOP takeover?

Thanks,

Angela Alsobrooks
